Description

Auxy is designed to be simple yet powerful and help you focus on your musical ideas. Our goal is to make it as smooth as possible to create song sketches or final tracks that sound professional.

WHY AUXY”Auxy is my favorite way to get what's going on in my brain into a musical format. It's simple on the surface but with tremendous depth if you need it" - RAC

“The automation is terrific. I'm doing things with Auxy I wouldn't easily do with my DAW. The design style is insanely smart and forward-thinking. It's productive for me to use, but i've also shown it to children who have been able to have fun making real music. It's the best new audio product I've seen in a long time.” - Madeon

“The thing we love about Auxy is how it uses technology to let people be creative, without letting that technology get in the way.” - Apple Design Awards

CREATE AND MIX LOOPSCreate melodies and beats with the industry-leading note editor that has been carefully designed to make the step from idea to song sketch as smooth as possible. Build complete tracks by mixing loops into scenes.

FIND THE RIGHT SOUNDSBrowse the massive sound library with thousands of high quality samples and hundreds of multi-sampled instruments. New content is added monthly and you can import your own samples.

MIX WITH PRECISIONEach sound has a set of carefully crafted effects and a lot of controls for tweaking. Mix settings can be automated over time for smooth transitions and dynamic effects.

COLLABORATE WITH EASEProjects can be shared as links with any imported samples included, which makes collaborating super easy.

Editors’ Notes

A refreshingly simple take on music-making, Auxy lets you create beats simply by placing colorful squares on grids. With the intuitive modular interface, it’s easy to arrange blocks, tinker with their composition, and create complicated beats. Once you’ve found the sound you’re looking for, you can adjust the tempo, key, and effects on the fly—then record it and export to MIDI.

Better each revision

I’ve been using Auxy on and off for about two years now. Those two years have been the most productive I’ve been in quite some time. I have about 20 years under my belt of non-professional, purely personal production experience and sometimes sitting in front of a blank canvas in a DAW is overwhelming and uninspiring. There’s lots of things Auxy can’t do - but it doesn’t pretend to try to do those things. The devs are pretty awesome and active, the app has evolved quite a bit since I’ve been using it (shortly before v4 came out)

TL;DR - this is probably the best groovebox style app on iOS. It is powerful enough to complete a track stand-alone, but the various export options will allow you to bring your projects into your normal workflow and the process is pretty seamless. I’m excited to see how things continue to develop.

3/5?

I bought Auxy when it was originally a $4.99 buy as a way to mess around with music. It has been quite a while and the app has evolved (apparently it's free now) quite a bit. While I am glad to see the devs progress and profit off of it, I've been upset by the removal of free access to the "Original" sound pack. There were complaints when they opted for a subscription service rather than the purchase of instrument packs, but people were allowed to keep packs they had already bought. I've lost access to the instruments that I originally purchased the app for and it's pretty upsetting to be left with the meager demo sounds. While I am disappointed with the devs' decisions, I am nonetheless impressed with the functionality and accessibility the app premiered with and continues to have.EDIT: I seem to have received an unlimited subscription for free (without notice) I do not know if it is on purpose of the devs, or not, but thanks I guess? [+ one star] for generosity?EDIT 2: I am now back to a free(?) membership (the app tells me that my subscription expired 3 months ago, while I was able to use all sound packs a day before writing this edit. Not surprised as the unlimited subscription was definitely out of left field, but I am now back to the same place as before—$4.99 lighter (+3 or so one-time subscriptions) with nothing to show for it. [- one star (I guess?)] for inconsistency? (back to my original rating)
